A Marine And French Lady

The train was packed,
and the U.S. Marine walked the entire length looking for a seat,
but a well-dressed,
middle-aged,
French woman's poodle took the only seat remaining.

The war-weary Marine asked,
Ma'am, may I have that seat?
The French woman just sniffed
and said to no one in particular,
Americans are so rude.
My little Fifi is using that seat.

The Marine walked the entire train again,
but the only seat left was under that dog.
Please, ma'am. May I sit down? I'm very tired.
She snorted, not only are you Americans rude,
you are also arrogant!

The next time the Marine didn't say a word;
he just picked up the little dog,
tossed it out the train window, and sat down.
The woman shrieked, Someone must defend my honor!
Put this American in his place!

An English gentleman sitting nearby spoke up,
Sir, you Americans seem to have a penchant
for doing the wrong thing.
You hold the fork in the wrong hand,
you drive your vehicles on the wrong side of the road.

And now, Sir,
you seem to have thrown the wrong bitch out the window.​
